21 miles alone today. Ran from my house to Marconi, did a loop in there, went out to the beach road and ran to the end and then came straight back. Did the first 1/2 at 6:43 pace and came back at a 6:17 pace for 6:30 overall. Last 6 were all under 6:12. Good stuff and felt fine energy-wise and leg-wise afterwards. 

Especially after the 14 yesterday, I'm very happy with the shape I'm in right now. Now, if I could just kick this cold, I'd be golden. I'm going to try for a double tomorrow (8 and 6 or some such thing) as I'd really like to hit 90 for the week and still have a little rest before the race Sunday.
